Y7 to Y8 Swap
I was looking to get some feedback from anyone who has done a Y7-Y8 swap. I have a 97 Civic DX Hatch with the Y7, and found a Y8 Head and ECU I want to put in. I know I obviously need the head, the ecu, gasket, and headbolts. Instead of trying to use the Y7 wiring harness should I try to find the Y8 one, or will I still need to do some extra wiring. Is there anything anyone could give me for info that I may not know about this build?

That thread exists specifically for people like you. What you want to look for is "mini-me", since you're just looking to swap the heads and not the entire engine.
